Subject Category: BIO Name: PRAJNA.M.R. & Std: 7 Guide: POORNA MANGALA.M.R. School: SUDANA RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL; NEHRU NAGAR; PUTTUR ABSTRACT: This project is about treating calf for falling of hairs from their body due to vitamin- a deficiency. In later stages calf will eat soil & if not treated properly in chronic cases it will die.it is a novel method to treat the above disease by using local herb. Pineapple is grown abundantly in tropical countries like india. After plucking of fruit the stem & leaves are cut & used as green manure. But of late the fiber is extracted from the leaves, which is used as alternative to jute.but along with this use it has medicinal properties also. Which is not been utilized to optimum. During the course of this project a case study has been carried out to treat the affected calves(hair fall problem) by using an extract of pineapple leaf. The methodology is simple. First pineapple leaves are heated on hot charcoal and by crushing the leaves juice is extracted. Then jagger y is mixed to the juice and liquid is fed to the calf. It has to be done 3 times a day and for a period of 7 days.and during course of study it is been found out that calf is is recovered and hairs are grown on the body. Veterinarians does not have any specific treatment for this problem.they will feed with vitamin a tablets till they recover.but the above treatment method is cost effective and specific.ph value test result;sample with jaggery;6.5 without jaggery;5.5.

K. School: Indraprastha Vidyalaya; Uppinangady ABSTRACT: My curiosity started when I saw our villagers applying the Hemigraphis alternata (Tincture plant or Raktha Sanjeevini) extract to their wounds. To give a scientific touch to this aspect I prepared a pure herbal skin ailment cream, devoid of side effects and chemicals. I took 4 Kg of Tincture leaves, crushed and squeezed to get 600 gms of extract. Then boiled the extract and condensed to 1/4 (150 gms)of its original volume. After cooling, added 25 gms Sodium benzoate as preservative. Then boiled the extract with 25 gms of Gum acacia and 15 gms of Andrographis paniculata. I made the ointment with two different bases. Bee wax based: I mixed 75 gms of Tincture extract with 60 gms of melted Bees wax and 170 gms of Coconut oil and stirred well. Petroleum jelly based: Mixed 75 gms of Tincture extract with 225 gms of Petroleum jelly, 25 gms of Coconut oil and stirred well. As a further step of investigation, I applied these ointments to the cows, dogs and pigs which have Mange, Myiasis and Flea allergy dermatitis. It cured these prolonged problems very fast. pH, Conductivity, HPTLC, Phytochemical, Anti-Microbial tests were done. It showed the presence of Alcholoids, Tannins,Flavanoids, Phenolic compounds,which acts as anti-septic, anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory which helps in curing all the skin problems in animals.We are emphasising to prepare After shave and Tooth paste also.

Nachiketh Kumar Std: 7 Guide: Jyothi Kiran Rai D. School: Indraprastha Vidyalaya; Uppinangady -2- ABSTRACT: A common fern, seen on rocks, wet walls, which is known as maidenhair fern (Adiantum lunulatum) is not just a weed. It has got many medicinal importance. To check its potential, we have tried an ointment from this plant. This Ointment helps to cure irritating and painful itchy boils and pus cells. To prepare this ointment, take 50g of Adiantum lunulatum leaves. Prepare an extract of it. Add 150g of Petroleum Jelly and mix it. Add 3g of salt, 0.026g of Sodium Benzoate and 3g of green camphor for better odor. The itchiness of the boils will be cured within 1 day and the boils will be cured within 3 days. In pus cells, the pus will rupture within 1 day and completely recovered within 3 days. We have conducted tests like Microbial, pH and Conductivity. Microbial test was conducted in the Yenepoya Research Centre. The pH and the conductivity tests were conducted in Vivekananda Degree College. The pH of the Ointment was 5.84 and conductivity 0.12S-1. The Microbial test proved that this ointment has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal property and is safe to apply on humans. We got positive result when it is applied on patients suffering from itchy boils and pus cells and we were inspired to carry on our project. Once we recognize this fern, we can easily prepare the extract if ointment is unavailable. Any poor person can afford to buy this ointment. Our Ointment is cheaper, Eco-friendly, natural, contains easy methodology, non-toxic and also plant based.
